I have just received a printer warning "printer to hot, wait a while" ...

[medeavanamonde@beige.party]

@MelissaBearTrix but what is the airflow like around the printer?
Is up against a wall?
Are the exhaust ports blocked by printer paper?

@MelissaBearTrix it's just bragging

@MelissaBearTrix dunk it in holy water to cool it down. Your printer built up too much evil because you haven't been punching it enough and now it can't dissipate that heat properly.

[melissabeartrix@gives.hugz.online]

@Axolotl1

So you recommend punching it with bear fist or brass knuckles

@MelissaBearTrix Brass knuckles.

In the 1990s, a friend gave me a PCL script for HP LaserJet printers, to send a request to any printer, to make it stop printing and display a custom message on the LED.

I'd prank people at a Wall Street bank, getting the printers to say stuff like, "RASPBERRY JAM", "GAME OVER", "HI SCORE", or "ADD CHEESE".

Overheard the SysAdmin, a rather serious man, on the phone with HP tech support, describing the issue: "Yeah....yeah....ADD CHEESE.....that's the error."

@MelissaBearTrix then it’s just being a damp booger

A weapon you slip through your finger and use them to hit people

@MelissaBearTrix yeah I know what those are. Didn't even ask yet here you are, giving me that wiki article anyway

Fuck me. Last time I've seen a printer stop because of overheating was in the early nineties. Dot-matrix printer which had been literally hours pounding ink into paper. Remember these print heads with cooling fins like little engines? No one twice made the mistake of touching them after a moderately-sized print job.
